This advanced methodology course builds on skills and knowledge developed in undergraduate psychology courses. We will first focus on preliminary data analyses, including missing data analysis; exploratory factor analysis; and confirmatory factor analysis. The next part of the course will focus on hypothesis-testing using advanced analytic techniques, including logistic regression; mediation analyses using bootstrapping; moderation analyses in regression and ANOVA; structural equation modeling; multi-level modeling; and multivariate analyses. Emphasis will be placed on conceptual understanding of analytic techniques; statistical decision-making; conducting and interpreting analyses using SPSS software; and critical evaluation of published empirical research reports.
